THE LEvEE
The talk about the "big leveen still con-
tinues 1t is argued by some that levee
on this side of the river would throw the
current into Hamburg, though Hamburg is
usually submerged long before the water
gets into the streets of Augusta. The pro-
ject, if carried out, will cost large amount
of money, but will protect thousands of dol
lars worth of property should another food
occur as destructive as the last one. DR..
Foster has many warm friends who espouse
the cause which he is cha1npioning with
great deal of enthusiasm.

NEW YORK, Sept ia new feature in
the cut of railroad passenger rates this
morning was the sale in large numbers of
tickets to Southern cities at nearly one-half
the regular rates. Tickets were sold
by brokers to Atlanta for $15
and to New Orleans for SIS, and
$50. The regular fare to Atlanta is s24 and
TO New Orleans S34. The fare to ST. Louis,
$40, is so far the lowest of the week In
spite of the assurances of the Cen
trail Traffic Association, the tendency
seemed to be toward a stiil
further reduction. Brokers claim that
the coming meeting of the Grand Army at
St Louis, with its accompanying low ex-
cursion rates, will continue the war in spite
OF everything, simply transferring the
headquarters of business to st. Louis.
